Phraseological Semantics in the Context of the English Language

Abstract

Our research interest is the issue of semantic features of idiomatic expressions in the English language. Phraseology is considered as the main feature of language units. It exists at different levels, from words to stable combinations, and is proof that most units of the English vocabulary have this characteristic. A lexical idiom can be in the form of a word or represent its lexical-semantic variant with full or partial semantic integrity.
